chisels

The chisels were held in the hand and struck with a wooden mallet. The following chisels must have had different functions, such as wood or stone working tools. There are two main types used for dressing stone. The flat mortise chisel was for cutting into a surface, while the round bar chisel was for flattening the surface.
